can I use this to write on slate and leave outdoors? How will it hold up in sun and rain?

My husband uses it to write on the hard plastic of the oil filters he has in his tractors. He said that it is oil-based paint and that you'd be hard pressed to get it off of most anything. He thinks it'll write on slate and hold up quite awhile in the sun and rain. Good luck!

Yes you would be able to write on the outside. It would have to be with a permanent marker tho.

I've used it about a year ago for outdoor purposes and it's survived all weather and climates without cracking or crumbling. It's definitely paintable.

I have one, It's not meant to be used Outside. Certainly if you put it outside, it will work, but I wouldn't want to get it wet or leave it exposed to extreme weather. I don't see it being capable of withstanding the elements.

I wouldn't think SUN could bother this, BUT RAIN Will. I don't recommend this for OUTSIDE.

If you paint it, it works for outdoor. I used Rustoleum outdoor paint and it's been on my patio for over a year.

I think the writing would stay one pretty well. It may depend on the marker you use. The ones I use take elbow-grease and alcohol to come clean, which means the writing is semi-permanent until I rub the daylights out of it.

I use this on white boards to form boxes for different projects. I have not used it outside. Sorry I could not offer more information.

No I don't think using it outside is wise. Unless being used in a covered area outside where water will not be able to get into the top area. Top is open - apart from wood framing, the cover is plastic so don't really think it will stand up much to sun, rain and wind elements.

I didn't experiment it in the rain. I would think so. Plus, all artists use it so as it is very popular I would think so.If you leave in MA, you can come over and check it out! Cat

Sorry. I do not have the answer to how these labels will withstand weathering outdoors. I wondered how the adhesive will last along with if the letters fade or wash away.

I didn't use it for outdoors. For outdoors I prefer Patio Paint. I really recommend "Patio Paint" for outdoors or Martha Stewart paints.

It is designed to be used outdoors. I have not had an issue with it in the rain or the snow.

It would not hold up in the rain, it's 'dry erase' but water will damage the material and the dry erase marker will run. The rain would probably get under the back and de-adhere it too.

It will definitely stick, but being outside in the elements it wont last as long as when you use it on the inside.

I definitely would not use this bench outside. It is not waterproof, so the finish would definitely begin to peel away if left outside to the elements.

I use these paints on anything! I don't however expect that it would hold up well outside in the weather. I have painted on paper, canvas, wood and even glass. Very versatile!
